DAKOTA DEMOCRATS.
Day said to be in the Ring Against
Church and Cleveland

Day said to be in the Ring Against
Church and Cleveland 5
Washington correspondence st. Panl
Pioneer Press: An intimate friend OF
the Hon. NJ. I'll. Day, who saw the re-
tired leader when on his late visit here
and who gets frequent letters from him,
lntimates that Day is putting in some
pretty strong work all over south Dakota
against the administration. Day, as has
already been stated, has sworn with q
good deal of emphasis that IL hard work
can accomplish 1T an anti-Oleveland
delegation shall be seut by the territory
to thenext democratic national eonven-
ton, and this same hard work began
many months ago with Day. Every
| business trip over the territory that he
has taken has left its impression IN q
political sense, and it is said he does not
lind the task by any means herculean in
Its character. Clsvelsnd's failure to
consider in his recommendations to con-
gress the rights of the territory, although
he has repeatedly promised such CON
slderation TO visiting delegations !;
his many broken promises of o
political character to leading Dakota
politicians, and above all his failure TO
place in the hands of his party the dozen
or more fat land end postoffices yet filed
by republicans have caused the Dakota
democracy to turn from him in disgust.
Most OF these men will join hands with
Day heartily in turning the territory
agalnst the administration. Meantime,
| it Is said, Gov. Church, into whose hands
Cleveland has thrown all the patronage
aRd upon whose shoulders the RESPONSE
bility of keeping the territory in line
has been placed, has not been idle.
Long experience in the fine art OF poli-
tics az praoticed in the counties of New
York, Kings and Queens, in his native
| state, gives the governor considerable
| advantage over his more clumsy -hand-
ed opponents even ia guileless
Dakota, and there are evidences
| here to show that he has met
| with some success. Huron and
| presumably Beadle county are devoted
| to him and will stand by him through
thick and thin. Sioux Falls has felt his
influence and responds to it in way
that would seem to indicate that he may
| always depend upon Mlnnehaha county.
A conquest Of Burlelgh county ls tc
follow, and with these three prominent
centers in his hands Church hopes &c
hold the territory in line against Day
and his friends. A curious question
arises here out of the situation, as to
whether Barrett OF Aberdeen and Day
will eventually join hands in attempting
to beat the administration. Barrett be-
longed to the man-Boypton crowd il
the early days Of the administration
and was among those fought Day bitter.
ly. Berrett's immediate opposition il
of course to Church personally, but Oak
ota people here think that all these peo
pie will eventually pool their opposition
and direct it toward the chief appoint
ing power.

claims that the only thing the trustees
can do is to resign. The idea that he
cannot trust them with the money
is mere nonsense. If the trustees
are guilty of any offense it
was neglect in allowing Colby to do as
he did with the money. Ali that is
charged against him is expending the
money and making personal charge to
himself instead of issuing vouchers. He
is no longer member of the board.
Gov. Church is doing this for political
reasons. He wants the men to resign.
This the trustees will not do. They
claim that charges have been made
against them and they want them in
yestigated while they are in office. Both
democrats and republicans at Yankton

The TRUTH STATED

Mayor Teller Tells a Newspaper About
the Insane Hospital Affair.
st. Paul Pioneer Press: James H.

ST, Paul yesterday. Mr.. Teller has a
vide acquaintance throughout the terri
tory and is a keen observer Of men and
measures. A Pioneer Press reporter
met him at the Ryan last evening and
asked HIM for his viewa on the affairs at
the the YYaBkton insane asylum. He said
edoy. Church appointed three OF the old
board, two republicans and one demo-
orat. He appointed two new mem bers,
both democrats. MIR. Van Tassel Was
the democratic member of the old board
that was appointed. He told me that
shortly after the board was organized
Auditor Ward came to him and desired
that he Van TasseI should cot with the
other two democrats end oust the repub-
licaAs in the institution. Ward claimed
to be representing Gov. Church. The
object was to make the patronage

Van Tassel refused to do this, and
the war began. Gov. Church said he
could not trust the board to expsnd the
$4,000 appropriated for building thu
addition to the asylum, and would moi
